I AM begining to loose interest in my wife and these days we are living a cat and dog life. How do I become a good husband to my wife?

This is not good, husband and wife staying like cats and dogs. The way we carry on with our conjugal life depends a lot on our society and upbringing. For some people, physical intimacy is the benchmark of being in love while to some, mental proximity is what matters. You really have to talk to your wife frankly and find out what she likes and you will have to be frank with you on your own likings and disliking too. Maybe you both will not agree but you will have to find a common platform if you really want to stay together. However, your becoming the better husband will not help if she is not willing to walk that extra mile with you.

I know deep down your heart you are still there for her otherwise you will not be asking how to be a better husband. I refer marriage is a vacation. A vacation to what? All young couples and most older couples don't have the foggiest idea what they are doing when they get married. Certainly at the age of twenty three I had no understanding of either the realities of marriage or my husband. Had I not been so blind, I might never have stepped down the aisle.`A vacation to marriage is a vacation to commitment. To be a good husband you should commit yourself to stay with your wife regardless of what you might think or feel.

First and foremost, for you to become a good husband, respect your wife. With respect there goes honesty, love and care. If you are beginning to lose your interest in her, talk it out with her so that at these early stage you can both find ways to bring back the fire in your relationship because if you just do nothing with your situation now, it might end up into something not good for both of you. I believe communication is very important in a relationship. If you do not like something in her then tell her so that at least she will be aware and that she can change it or if you wanted her to do something for you, say it as well. If you have lots of things which you both don't agree then learn to compromise, so that you both will be satisfied. You and your wife should have the patience to understand and stand by one another. Remember that no one is perfect and that we all have our mistakes so be patient enough for one another...
